I know some people still swear by their old iPods or film cameras. For me it’s a 15 year old Western Digital external HDD. Do you have any older gadgets or tech that you refuse to let go of?

Still have the first computer I bought with my own money, and it still works. It’s an Amiga 500 from 1991. I fire it up and play ancient games with it once in a while, on the ancient 1084s CRT monitor.
Also had one of the super rare A3000T’s but unfortunately the battery corroded the motherboard while I had it stored away. I didn’t even learn about that problem until researching what had gone wrong with my beautiful Amiga tower. C’est la vie. At least I was able to get an image of the 120MB SCSI hard drive, which I can boot up in an emulator and relive the glory days of 1993.
Do you still have that A3000T? There are people that can repair that…
Yes I still have it. Repair of the motherboard was attempted but failed. Then I sent pics to the premier repair guy overseas. He said it was too damaged to repair, unfortunately.
I’ll probably part it out at some point but I haven’t had the will to fully dismantle it yet.
